And in the morning, even we’re both rested… we can figure out where to go from here.

[fluidgender]

[Rest sounds... amazing right now.]

If... that is you wish, my- Fuu.

[She never knows how to stay consistent between casual and professional.]

[hououji]

[ She giggles a little, but it’s tired. ]

Then I will see you tomorrow.

[fluidgender]

Tomorrow...

[She takes her time finding a room to sleep in, cautious about ensuring Fuu retires to her own room. But she is... so ready to konk out when she gets the chance.

She completely forgets about the will she left behind near the medical wings.]

[hououji]

[ Ooooooh shit what does it say??? ]

[fluidgender]

[It is a full confession to being Ranma Saotome and expressing guilt for all the damage the family has done to the royal family.

So that's just a surprise tool to leave around for later,]

[hououji]

[Good blackmail material for some inquisitors maybe????????

When Ranma shows up again the next day, Fuu is still asleep. She's honestly going to sleep most of the day. She didn't realize exactly how tired she was, but goodness she was.]

[A Drama Device Of Drama

Ranma... is honestly happy to let her. She'll clean up the space and pick up laundry, however little there may be, but she spends a lot of time just relieved that the princess is... resting.]

[hououji]

[Oh the place is so clean. The only reason it isn't spotless is because, well, she was all but dripping blood yesterday.

Outside of that, the biggest mess is the amount of half-read books she has laying around, using all sorts of things as bookmarks, including but not limited to feathers, ribbons, pens, and a second book.]

[fluidgender]

[Cleaning up blood goes by quick at least and she’s content to just watch over Fuu.

…but Ranma isn’t smart. It’s entirely possible she could clean up the books and lose those pages,]

[hououji]

[ Fuu wouldn’t be too upset. Just a bit confused. When she finally wakes, it’s well past lunch time. ]

… Ranma? How long have you been here…?

[fluidgender]

[She would be standing at attention but she has a feeling Fuu would feel worse about that. She still feels like lazy dirt for sitting in the nearby chair.]

Not long, Fuu. Barely an hour.

[Since 6 am, have woken up at 4.]

[hououji]

I’m sorry I didn’t wake to greet you. I must have been more tired than I thought.

[fluidgender]

If you're gonna apologize for sleeping, ya might as well apologize for breathing air or drinking water.

[hououji]

It's hardly polite to sleep through company.

Are you feeling well?

[fluidgender]

I'm a servant of the house now, I think that means I don't gotta be considered "company" if I essentially live here.

[Even if she... hasn't really been in the main house before.]

P'alright. Longer than I planned to. [Nightmares kept waking her up. Images of marching through a village, with horrified faces crumbling. Some of them had Fuu or the queen's face.]

[hououji]

And to sleep through someone helping feels a bit cruel.

If you need more rest, that's fine! [She's getting up and pulling on her glasses.] I don't plan on doing much today.

[fluidgender]

Technically, someone is always working while we're asleep. Are you gonna worry about people across the sea?

I got a full nine hours, I'm in great condition.

[Well, it was a lot of hours. They went to a bed pretty early last night, even if they kept waking up.]

[hououji]

Have you eaten?

[fluidgender]

An apple, jerky, and some bread.

[Its what she's used to, from eating rations on the battlefield.]

[hououji]

... It's around lunch time, would you like to join me?

[fluidgender]

...Food sounds pretty good any day of the week.

[hououji]

Are you all right with eating in here? I'm not sure I'm ready to socialize much.

[fluidgender]

[Her shoulders relax a lot.]

I don't know how to talk to those guys without stepping on toes. In here sounds great.

[hououji]

[She giggles a little.]

My mother said you spoke in the carriage. She seems to like you.
